I found this when google searching atheism, which is very nice, and I didn't feel like going back to atheism.org. So I saw mike's site, and decided to stay. I'm happy to see quite a few TGUers in here.

Funny story, really...

I posted almost exclusively at the Macross World Forums.

I was involved in a discussion over, you guessed it, an ISD vs Enterprise-E. I was foolishly convinced that E-E would over power the ISD. Of course I had to back up my argument, so I went searching the 'Net for hard data.....and I came across SD.net through a search for ISD info.

After carefully reading through Mike's site, I soon learned the folly of my ways....

Been a fan of SD.net ever since and I never looked back.........still post at Macross World, though!

I did a search for "anal sex" and somehow ended up here.

I was bored one day and I decided to just type in random things into the url box. First, Stardestroyer.com, then stardestroyer.org. and then finally stardestroyer.net and BAM. I'm here.

I found the light in 2000 when searching for st vs sw type stuff, combind with downloading porn from usenet. Thus I found ASVS and thence SD.Net...

Oberleutnant · Post by **Oberleutnant** » 2003-09-20 09:39am

I occasionally lurked ASVS and SB.com but nothing else. However, I was / am a regular visitor of I Want YOU for the Galactic Empire and ASVS fanfc archive websites.

SB.com was my original homeland, been scouring that place since the end of '99 and joined mid-2000. I also was around ASVS during the infamous invasions of SB.com and the "Wong Is Wrong" campaign.

I registered here a day after the place opened because I had been busy and didn't know of this glorious board until I checked SD.net for any updates.

Enigma · Post by **Enigma** » 2003-09-20 12:02pm

This December marks six years that I've been on ASVS. I've found out about SDN last year from a few of the ASVS regulars. I tried to sign up but my account never got activated. Then I pushed it out of my mind until early this year.

ASVS RULES!!!!!

I'm another member of the "random url" club. And I'm glad I found this place; back then I used to be a dumb "no-lasers" trekkie. Gah!

Lord Pounder · Post by **Lord Pounder** » 2003-09-20 12:41pm

I found this board becasue i am Soma the world famed sheep molester.

Nah only joking

Found this place when i ran a google search for Star Destroyers. Originally signed up as Muad'Dib, fucked something up and had to register a new username, this one. I did join SB.com because of here but i very rarely visit and post even less.

I was a member of Spacebattles first, but I found SB through the links on SD.net. What does that make me?

The Dark · Post by **The Dark** » 2003-09-20 01:41pm

I'm an indy. I found this site when a friend and I were arguing (friendly-like) over whether or not an ISD could beat the Ent-D. I remember writing a couple e-mails to Mike that I'm damn lucky didn't make it onto Hate Mail, and I still don't bother with SB or ASVS. I'm on here, the DP9 mailing list, the Gamefaqs forums, and the Palladium Books forums.

Tsyroc · Post by **Tsyroc** » 2003-09-20 01:52pm

I think I originally came into contact with this site or a precursor back when AOL had a Babylon 5 site and series of message boards. At some time people had put links to different sci-fi/science sites so I think I enountered the Turbo Laser portion of the site original quite awhile ago.

There was a big gap in my activity here but at some point I ended up reading the rest of the site which I found interesting. It also had the benefit of keeping the site in the back of my mind and on one of my bookmarks so it was easy to find when my interest in Star Wars picked up with the new trilogy.

Companion Cube · Post by **Companion Cube** » 2003-09-20 02:16pm

I came here for months before it had a message board, then returned maybe a year later to find that, to my horror, there was a message board and i'd been missing out for six months.

Oh, well.

2000AD · Post by **2000AD** » 2003-09-20 05:34pm

I was on the STar Wars galaxies forums for a bit a few years ago and then there was the inevetable SW vs ST debate. Someone posted a link to SD.Net, back when it was just the site, no forums. I read it, laughed myself silly at the hatemail and then when Mike set up the primitive forums i did a couple of posts. then he set up the forums proper and joined. By that time i'd been reading the ASVS fanfic archive and the FUQ but had never been to ASVS or SB.

Captain Cyran · Post by **Captain Cyran** » 2003-09-20 05:56pm

A friend and I were discussing who would win, ISD or Ent-D. We made it at equal...then my friend found this site, I'd say 5-6 months before the boards went up. And that changed our minds on that subject. Then when the board came up I told him about it, he is The Silence and I.

Jadeite · Post by **Jadeite** » 2003-09-20 06:16pm

I surfed into here looking for info on ISDs.

Agent R · Post by **Agent R** » 2003-09-20 06:50pm

An SW-vs-ST search brought me here. Well, to the main site, actually, then I came here.

Kyle · Post by **Kyle** » 2003-09-20 06:54pm

I came here from ASVS but by a round about route. I'd stopped posting on ASVS for a year or so because of a move that left me with no computer with internet access at home. I wandered by ASVS after finally getting a new computer and internt access again.

I saw some posts about SD.net now having a web board, so I started lurking and throwing out the occasional random post. Like this one.

El Moose Monstero · Post by **El Moose Monstero** » 2003-09-20 07:39pm

I sauntered over from TGU (The Gaming Union). First brought in by Starcrossed, as I recall. But as I've probably said before, I ghosted for 4 months or so before actually joining.

It's All Nitram's Fault!

He lured me here! He tricked me into reading the first post. Now I'm hooked and I'll never be able to escape!!

Darth Garden Gnome · Post by **Darth Garden Gnome** » 2003-09-20 10:15pm

My first haunt was the Star Wars Galaxies forums (back when I was really excited by the game). I hadn't heard of SB.cpm or ASVS at this time. I used the same name, but I didn't have the whole SEGNOR thing going on just yet. Interestingly, I never even posted in the section talking about the game; I kept myself in the Pure Star Wars forum. Of course, they were no experts on Star Wars, and after I realized my hopes of having an SWG account were nil (my Mom wouldn't pay $10 a month for a video game, to my objections; she turned out to be the sensible one), I dropped out of the forum-scene for a while.

I had known about SD.Net since I had a comp; long before the forums existed. I checked about once a week, and one week low and behold there's a forum. I signed up immediately. And the rest is history.

Andrew J. · Post by **Andrew J.** » 2003-09-20 10:37pm

Random, long-forgotten Google search gave me the knowledge of ASVS's existence. Read there for a long time, never posted, went to SB, and then came here.
